This time, Hong Xu's pill formula was one that could boost the cultivation level of Foundation Establishment practitioners, making it priceless.
The Divine Wood Sect even has a rule that if a monk stumbles upon a pill formula the Sect doesn't own while traveling, they could purchase it at a reasonable price, and the Sect would reimburse it.
However, this rule is generally just for show. First, the monks of the Divine Wood Sect wouldn't bother to keep track of all the pill formulas the Sect owns and hence wouldn't necessarily know if this was included.
Even if they definitely knew the Sect didn't own it, what constituted a reasonable price was highly debatable since there was no clear boundary, and it relied heavily on subjectivity.
Both Fu Xiuzuo and Liang Jinggui who were at Chen Mobai's side were greatly interested and approached Hong Xu to check the contents of the two pill formulas.
